I wonder if it would fit in my 70’ Cuda or 71’ Charger R/T? What transmission auto/manual will bolt up to it? They sell a transmission that will work with it, separately. No prices given so I imagine it'll be damned expensive. I couldn't find any info on any other trans that might fit

There will be millions of Jeeps and trucks with these in a few years, no need to buy an overpriced brand new crate version. If its a legit American 2JZ people will be putting them in everything, 400-500hp stock means its going to be built strong and will only need more boost to make crazy power. Yeah, that's more likely the route I would have to go. New with warranty is nice, but exceeds my budget. I would guess it'll be a few years for the aftermarket support to be there anyway. I'm in no hurry. The Duster is currently number 3 in line for resto....if I live that long.

Is there an internet webpage with tech details of the Torqueflite 8 transmission?
Is it also claiming 95% or more efficiency? Without looking, I remember a hot rod article from not quite 10 years ago calling the ZF transmissions the Torqueflite 8.......

Cool that Stellantis isn't going 100% to EV.
Straight sixes are capable of big power. Adjustable wastegate and meth injection and probably can get 1000hp with just a simple tune.

more and more garage, house, and apartment fires reported caused by battery fires, being charged or not, doesn't seem to make a difference. i'm not a fan of electric vehicles, except in very limited circumstances. plus the fact lithium mining is FAR from "green", yet no one mentions that, or seems to care.

I am naturally skeptical of any study with so many variables but I have seen several studies that say that end to end, all things considered that EVs pollute about 50% of what petroleum fueled cars do during their lifetime. This includes all aspects of manufacturing. I have also seen that while they gather no publicity that petroleum fuel cars catch fire more often per 100,000 miles driven than EVs. I have made no attempt to fact check either and really don't know how I would given the cesspool known as the Internet.

Except they don't generally catch fire in your garage, Fords excepted of course, lol.

AGREEI'd call BS on that I would also ask what about the disposal of the toxic waste from this plane saving BS. Myself I find it somwhat strange that this whole EV thing sprung up like a watered and fertilized weed. ( BTW BS is a good fertilizer LOL) I kind of wonder if Musk isn't pushing the buttons ? I would also question that data as how many EV's have traveled 100K miles?AGREE

Straight sixes are capable of big power. Adjustable wastegate and meth injection and probably can get 1000hp with just a simple tune. sadly after seeing it, its just as big and heavy as a v8, overly complicated for a drivetrain swap and won't make you pop your hood to show it off. Probably the most unappealing engine I've seen in a long time.

Probably the most unappealing engine I've seen in a long time. Yup! Barely more appealing than an electric motor... then maybe that's what they're after, make an overly complicated un-inspiring pile of garbage nobody will buy then claim everyone wants electric and ditch them all together, thats what happened to the Dakota, they made it huge, butt ugly, no better MPG than a half ton, no engine anyone wanted (hemi and the 3.6 would have been super easy to put in) then said "well nobody is buying it lets quit making them?
